    Poll on Drone use

    Pretty sure you'll enjoy it. First few flights are nerve wracking! especially over water. Once you get the confidence that the drone wont just drop out of the sky it starts to be fun :-)

    Poll on Drone use

    Mini 2 for me alongside my a7iv. I bought it to fly up hills and check the view so I didnt have to walk up! After a long spell of illness I use it even more. Mainly photos, doing a few videos now, but nothing spectacular. Pics in order - Talisker beach, Amble pier, Amble farm, Howick and Craster

    eGlobal Central

    Used them in the past, not for a while though. I'm more interested in customs duties now that we are out of the EU - does it mean buying from HK and China will be more likely to attract attention!

    New mITX build advice please

    New mITX build advice please

    Thanks guys, I dont think I could get a fan anywhere pulling air in, liking the idea of the vertical fan, I'll have to look at clearance on the height as there's a 3.5" drive along the top, eventually it will be replaced by an SSD, but that will have to wait a while.

    Thank you, the seed is standing in milk stuck to bluetack! The last photo has a flower behind it, the others I had my flash bounce off holographic wrapping paper and reflect on the milk.
